Bring to a boil and season with 1 1\/2 tbsp salt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Step 2: Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions to the hot oil and cook for about 2 to 3 minutes or until translucent. Next, add the fresh chorizo and continue to cook for another 5 minutes, breaking the meat up using a wooden spoon as it cooks until completely browned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Step 3: To the skillet, add the red bell pepper along with the garlic, chipotle peppers, paprika, lemon zest, half tsp kosher salt, heavy cream, and tomato paste. Bring everything to a boil, then decrease the heat to a gentle simmer for about 3 to 5 minutes until the sauce has reduced and slightly thickened, stirring often. When done, take the skillet off the heat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Step 4: To the boiling water, add the pasta and cook about a minute or two shy of what is indicated in the package directions. Drain when done and set aside about a cup of pasta water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Step 5: To the sauce, add the cooked pasta and cilantro. Place the skillet back on the stovetop and heat everything for about 1 to 2 minutes, stirring to coat the pasta well. If the sauce turned out too thick, add a little of the reserved pasta water until you reached your desired consistency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Step 6: Take the skillet off the heat, then stir in the cotija cheese. To taste, season with black pepper and salt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Step 7: Serve immediately garnished with extra cilantro.
